Another dumb question (it can't be this hard)....
This is my second attempt to get an answer: First, when looking at a post in the forum, how does one go back one page to the forum topics in order to look at other topics on that word/ subject? When I hit the "browser back" key, it takes me back to the translation page (dictionary) for that word. I got 2 responses, which are appreciated, but neither is correct.

I wrote search box in the box. I hope it helps.
If you hit question and answer, it brings you back to the main forum. There, just to the right, you will see the box under "Ask a question". It has a spy glass in it. That is the search box. You can put your search word there and look for the topics in the forum. I hope this helps.
The only way I've been able to reproduce what you're describing is by following the links to "Lookup questions and answers related to "___" in our answers forum." at the bottom of word definition pages. Those links are designed to pop open in place.
In other words, you don't actually leave the definition page until you select a question to view. Then, when you click the back button it just reloads the definition page. Those links are not the way most people search the forum. You should send suggestions for how to make them more functional to feedback.
A quick fix:
When you are starting from a definition page, you can right click a question, and open it in a new tab/window. Then, when your done reading it, just close it.
To search the forum directly:
Sanlee has given you fairly detailed instructions for how to search the forum the way people normally do. If you do it the way she says, the back button will do what you want it to do.
I hope this helps.
